So you mean something like entries in defaults/rc.conf, a default one for most systems, and one that has a set of commands good for a limited-power system, so that someone could easily choose it in their rc.conf with a line such as initrandom_kickstart_cmd=initrandom_slowcpu_kickstart_cmd That seems like a pretty good idea to me. Provide both a "full control to the admin" knob and a serving suggestion. -- Ian
